Arms - What did you wear home

I am having my Upper Body and arms done tomorrow. 

What did you wear home from the hospital?  Large Tee Shirt?  Or Button Down Shirt?  Or something else?

Thanks in adavance - I feel like I am so NOT prepared!

I had my bra/arm compression & lower body compression garment.  I wore huge tshirts for the first few days.  It also hid all my drains.  For the airplane ride home, I had a little tshirt and and a 3/4 length button down shirt that I left open.  It hid the 3/4 length arm/bra garment.  Now, it's just under my tshirts.  I know that Dee said she wore big baby doll tops.  You really can move your arms around, just don't stretch for things. 

I wore my night gown with a over sized robe over it. The night gown was stretchy and loose with thin straps so I could step into it and then my mom pulled it up over my arms so I didn't have to move my arms too much. The robe I just belted loosely over the night gown. I had a binder underneath the gown for my breasts and bandages on my arms. I pinned my drains and the pain pump buttons to the binder.

At home I just wore the binder most of the time with loose sweat pants. If I had to leave the house I threw on a sun dress with straps because I couldn't stand to have anything touching my arms for the first month.

I am so excited for you. Good luck with your surgery tomorrow.

Take care,
Ole

I wore extra large t-shirts. Thank goodness it was the middle of the summer so I wasn't cold. No way would I be able to do that now w/ all the snow.

Good luck on your surgery

cotton camisole pulled up over the hips under the binder (I also had LBL/anchor at the same time), and then a button-down shirt. My surgeon's wanted me in pull-up and button down for the first two weeks.

I did find that, once I got to the silicone regime for the arms, a pair of trouser socks with the toes cut open holds the silicone on nicely and isn't noticeable under most long-sleeved shirts (scars go just past the elbow for me).

Best of luck with your surgery!

I wish i could help but im not there yet! but i wanted to say  gooood luck! and i hope im in your shoes soon... i'm getting the lower body lift on thursday!
